How to solve your Aadhaar Card related Problems?

Aadhaar card under UID project is going to be implemented in whole India in next few months. Many states have already started making Aadhaar cards for Indian citizens.

Aadhaar is a 12 digit individual identification number issued by the Unique Identification Authority of India on behalf of the Government of India.

This number will serve as a proof of identity and address, anywhere in India.

Any individual, irrespective of age and gender, who is a resident in India and satisfies the verification process laid down by the UIDAI can enrol for Aadhaar.

Each individual needs to enroll only once which is free of cost.

Each Aadhaar number will be unique to an individual and will remain valid for life. Aadhaar number will help you provide access to services like banking, mobile phone connections and other Govt and Non-Govt services in due course.

Where to submit your aadhaar related queries?

Any resident seeking enrolment is given a printed acknowledgement form with an Enrolment Number, that enables the resident to make queries about her/his enrolment status through any communication channel of the contact centre.

Your Aadhaar number should reach the address provided during enrolment normally within 90 days of enrolment. If not, the resident will need to call/email the UIDAI Contact Centre with the enrolment number.

Yes, there will be concern and issues that residents or UIDAI eco system partner may have in terms of enrolment, authentication and identity frauds etc. . The UIDAI has set up a Contact Centre that serves as a single point of contact for the organization. The existing channels of communications are :

The registrar is expected to put in place a team that would serve to quickly address any matters requiring resolution that may pertain to the Registrar, but may be conveyed to the UIDAI Contact Centre. Queries / grievances which need Registrar/enrolment agency involvement will be transferred to the Registrar appointed nodal officer through a web portal. The time taken for resolutions will be finalized jointly.

What if a Resident gets rejected by the UIDAI and is not issued the Aadhaar no.?

The reason for rejection along with steps to be taken post rejection will be communicated to the resident and the Registrar.

What if a Resident misplaces his Aadhaar letter /forgets his Aadhaar no.?

The resident can contact the Contact Centre (through phone / letter / email) with the enrolment number and make a request for sending a second letter communicating the Aadhaar number. This may be a paid service.

In case the Aadhaar number has been used to avail a service or benefit, the resident can contact the agency that offers the same, to obtain the Aadhaar number.

What if the Aadhaar letter does not get delivered to a Resident?

Your Aadhaar number should reach the address provided during enrolment normally within 90 days of enrolment. If not, the resident will need to call/email the UIDAI Contact Centre with the enrolment number.

What can the Resident do if there are spelling mistakes / other demographic error in his/her Aadhaar letter?

During enrolment, even when the data is entered, the resident can see the data entry and is expected to point out errors at this stage. Prior to finalization and printing of the Enrolment Acknowledgment, one more opportunity is presented to make corrections.

In the event that both opportunities are missed, the demographic correction may be carried out by visiting the enrolment centre within 48 hours of time of enrolment carrying the relevant documents and enrolment slip.
